Every seat is funded by someone.

Someone who decided it mattered. Heritage Polonia is fully funded for admitted students, and that holds only because of the people on this page.

What a gift
actually buys.

A student's full participation is the unit we budget in: flights, hotels, meals, and every entry included.

When a partner funds a seat, a specific student who could not otherwise have gone, goes.

In the 2026 cycle that meant 26 students out of 103 applicants. The constraint was not interest and it was not quality. It was funded seats.

Four ways in.

Partners are matched to pillars, so your people meet the students whose field is your field.

Fund seats

Underwrite student places. The most direct thing a partner can do, and the easiest to measure.

Host the cohort

Open a site, a floor, or a boardroom on business day in Poland. The best of these are working sessions, not tours.

Send a speaker

Join a panel or a reception. Pillar-matched, so the questions you get are worth your time.

Recruit from it

Three cohorts of high-achieving students, including students from Harvard, Yale, MIT, Columbia, Cornell, and Johns Hopkins, already in the room.

Give directly.

Heritage Polonia Foundation, Inc. is a registered 501(c)(3), EIN 92-1507313. Gifts are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Donate your deposit

Many alumni leave part or all of the $500 returned from their deposit with the program. It funds the next cohort directly.

Fund a share of a seat

A seat can be funded by many people together. Every gift counts toward the next cohort.

Grant support

We are happy to share our determination letter, board roster, financials, and a per-participant budget for diligence.

Give online.

Secure checkout by card, U.S. bank account, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Give once or every month, in the amount you choose.
